VP, BROTHERS, UP! BY C. D STUART. Up, brothers, up! the light begins. Along the eastern sky, To promise that the night is past, And better days are nigh; A clarion voice rings o'er the hills, The valleys catch the sound — And Freedom is the stirring cry That fills the earth around! It pierces through the fading gloom, Its strength the peasant feels. And old oppressioti from its throne With shame and terror reels; All men lift up their heart and hands, More fearless and More free, And loud ring out the common shout, No more we’ll bend the knee! From smithy forge, from fisher’s cot, From ploughs that break the lea, From iron looms, from smoking mines, From ships that, cleave the sea, One voice is heard, and mightier Sweep on, and ever on! The tyrants day, the vassal’s task, Are gone, forever gone! Up, brothers, up! and share the I'ght, Rejoice! the day has come When Freedom decks the lowest shrine, And guards the poorest home: Rejoice! and pledge with strengthening ties The new born heart and mind, . j To keep the boon and pass it on To all of human kind. Rejoice! that ye have broke at length The thong and heavy chain. Which neither age nor human strength Can bind ye with again; Rejoice! and swear ye will not bead, Nor give the guerdon back, Though glistening steel disputes the way, ’ And flame is on your track. BUYING A HORSE BY ALICE CARY. I am more and more astonished, the longer 1 live, nt the way men talk around and live around facts, hesitate, quibble and lie An amusing instance of common proceedure in business transactions I came to my knowledge lately. Mr. Brown, a farmer living the city of horse—one of which he was especially j anxious to sell, and Mr. Smith a resident of , was especially desirous of pur-1 chasing said animal. He was well adv ised of the good points of the horse and predetermined to buy him, no matter at what price he might be held at by his j owner. > Mr. Brown, meantime, knew that Mr. Smith wanted to buy the horse, and would probably pay more than his fair value;! nevertheless, weeks and months went by, and Mrs. Brown said repeatedly that Brownscri/ters were eating their heads off; and Mr. Brown answered, ‘Well, what can I do? sell them at auction, and get half their worth?’ and Mrs. Smith said as often, ‘Much good our carraige does us without a horse; I could find one, 1 know,’ and Mr. Smith replied that he wished he could. At last matters came to such a pass in the two families that the sale and purchase could be dafered no longer, and this juncture a happy expedient was hit upon by both parties—they would contrive a meeting which should seem accidental.— Accordingly Mr. Brown mounted his fine grey, and proceeded to the Agricultural Fair, where he thought it not unlikely he should meet Mr. Smith, who at the same time influenced by no motive under the sun but the hope of buying Mr , Browns horse, set out foi the same place. Both were advancing in hot haste, each I intent on seeing the other, when they met. •Ah, Mr. Brown, how d’ye do?’ said Mr. Smith, assuming a look of astonishment. ‘You are the last man I expected to see here’.’ .'Well, J may say the same of you,' replied Mr. Brown: ‘l'd as soon have ’ thought of seeing you at the end of the ; earth—how did you happen to get here?’ 'Weil, I ha r dly know—l bad no par-' ticular object—that’s certain. How are all your folk?’ 'Tolerable well, thank ye, how are yours?’ Then followed a long conversation on the various ailments of children, in which neither, of course, bad one particle 1 of interest. •I think,’ said Mr. Smith, at lenght,' changing the subject, ‘the wind is veering round to the East.’ ’Yes,’ said Brown, ‘I should not wonder if we had rain.’ Smith thought rain , was more likely to fall when the wind was I southerly. ‘1 hope it won’t rain,’he said looking at the skys instead of at Bi own’s horse; ‘it would make it unpleasant for the : folks at the fair,especialy for the ladies.’! ,Yes,’ replied Brown, ‘it would be dis-! agreeable, especially for the ladies.’ ITurc both maJc long rcutak oi stoinis

which they remembered to have fallen on | like occasions. .There seem to be some nice cattle here,’ said Smith —on no account would he mention horses. ‘Yes,’ said Brown, 'there’s a fine pair, of oxen’ and he indicated by a gesture the ones referred to. ‘Not any stouter, are they, for being so large?’ said Smith. ‘No, I don’t know as they arc; butthen if you happen to want to sell them for beef cattle, you know, they can’t wiegh too much.’ 'Ah, I suppose not.’ Everything was talked of that could be seen or thought of —everything but what was uppermost in thoughts of Mr. ■ Brown and Smith. ‘Well, I guess I may as well ride home,! said Smith, at last. ‘lts nearly dinner time.’ And he wound bis watch with the ' deliberation of a man entirely easy in his J mind. ‘I will go, too,’answered Brown, yawn- 1 ing. ‘Ay the way, Smith, be added, ,can you tell me of any person who has > a young horse to sell? sound, good-tem- ' pered, and handsome!’ If Mr. Brown expects Smith to answer ! | that he himself wished to buy just such a ; horse, he was disappointed, for Smith replied as promptly as if he were speaking the truth, ‘Why, yes, sir—l have just i such a horse to sell as you want.’ Brown said he was glad to hear of it — he would ride over and look at him the ] first leisure day he bad. Thus lying, one to the other, Mr. Brown mounted the grey horse which he was impatient to sell, |, and Mr. Smith impatient to buy. T They had shaken hands to seperate, when Smith remarked to Brown, slapping his fine grey on the shoulder, ‘rather a , promising colt this of yours; will make a ‘ ■ good kw£/<orse some day, I should think. Mr. Brown understood the affected ap- - 1 preciation, and said he wished he only had i j half a dozen more ja’t like him, work- ‘ ( horse or not. Smith replied that he had employed a f carman, an excellent judge of horses, to j keep on the lookout for him—he, too, , 1 wished to buy when he could suit himself 1 and he would give the fellow a commission from Brown. While these pretences were going on . l the sun went down, but by degrees their circumlocutions narrowed to the point of j ! interest, and about ten o’clock, Mr. Brown i i affirmed twenty times that he would not | sell his grey horse at any price and Smith i I having affirmed as often that he would not j pay a hnndred dollars for him, even if he suited him, which he did not in one single respect, the bargain was affected, Mr. Smith paying three hundred dollars for the horse. ‘lts twice as much as he is worth, and ! you know it, Brown,’ said, Smith as they sepe rated. ‘lt is not half his worth,’ replied Brown,! l as he pocketed the money. ‘I am sorry I let him go.’ When they reached their homes Mr. i Smith told his wife that he had bought! B rown’s spknded grey horse for half price, and Mr. Brown congratulated his better-half on having sold the same anima! for twice his value! Comfort Before Appearance. Most people are too apt to sacrifice comfort for appearances, to subject their own families to manifold privations and discomforts in order to astonish with a show ofaflluenceafew accqaintances who seldom ! visit them, and who only laugh at their | foolish and puerile attempts at displaying! a little superior upholstery in a rooml which nene of the family dare make use of. Many is the house we have seen ! I wherein the ‘parlor’ was crammed with ] useless stuff while not a single room was j comfortable fnrnisbed. Every family should seek first the ut-; most comfort for its own members that its i i means will compass; and then, if there is ! a surplus of funds which they know not I what else to do with, let it be devoted to! i the purchase of something to please the ■ j eyes of strangers —or rather to excite en- ! vy in their bosoms; for such things gen- ! : erally occasion far more envy than pleas- ’ ure among rival householders. Those apartments of a house which are most j used should receive the most attention.l The dining-room and sleeping apartment j should receive the most especial care for , on these does the healthfand consequently the comfort and happiness) of the family ; pre-eminentlv depend. In short seek first I " * our own comfort, and the ‘appearances’ will take care of themselves. HI —' HI A lie, though it be killed and dead, can sting sometimes -like a dead wasp.

PROSPECTUS iNDiAsnwMmm, ®, The proprietors ofthis establishment deciu it almost unnecessary to urge upon the Dem™ racy of the State, the importance of largely creasing the circulation of the Sentinel, a faithful and candid exposition of Democrat], principles and policy is all that is necessary tn secure their continued ascendency inthemiitd! of the people, and this can be best accomphsliu through the medium of the press. And tomak, success easy in the future, our people should be thoroughly informed and receive correct in. pressions upon all the party issues and p u y]j questions of the day. As it has been m past, this will be the continued object of the Sentinel and to the faithful accomplishment of this duty, its proprietors will give all theirabil. ity, energy and zeal. In return we shall ask of the Democracyof the State a liberal and hearty support. In do. ing us a service personally, they will have the satisfaction of knowing that they will 60W j broadcast, sound principles and just sentiments iWe hope that every democrat will feel it his I duty to be asoliciting agent in his own neighi borhood, for in no way can he accomplish greaI ter good than in the circulation of a paper true to its faith. The Sentinel should have a (circulation in the State of Fifty Thousand, and i it can be accomplished if the Democwv D / ' State will it. With a little effort on the p»tof I our friends, this number of subscribers can he | obtained in the next thirty days. I As the central Organ of the party we shall 1 know no men, interests or cliques! and it shall I be our aim to do equal and exact justice to all, : Our duty is to be the advocate and exponents | the principles and measures of the party, and whoever they shall select as its Representative Men, to give them an energetic and cordial sup, port. The administration of Mr. Buchanan will soon be inaugurated. Every democrat should be interested to know the sentiments and policy of the man of his choice. Congress is in session ' and the people should keep informed of thedo lings of th ir servants. Tin Legislature of this State will assemble !on the 7th January, and every citizen of tin commonwealth should watch, with nn anxiou j eye, all that concerns our State interests. The j Sentinel will contain full reports upon all these ! topics, motives enough we think to indnceevc ry man to take our paper. In addition we shall keep our readers informed upon all the current news of the day, domestic and foreign. Ifi will give full reports of the markets, and nil interesting commercial and monetary matters.We will give each week a full report oftheS Y, cattle market. In a word we shall endears! to give our paper an interest to the trndetmu ' the mechanic, the laborer, to all elasses and pre sessions. Advertisers are especially invibdk the great advantages the Sentinel offers ns i advertising medium. Its extended circula;.®. reaches all portions o f the State i nd nil cltssi of the community, giving the advantage ofrt • only a large local, but general circulation. We again ask our friends to aid in exteiidnj the circulation < f both our Daily and H im: paper. Having no soliciting agents, wo shl have to depend entnely upon then good ’ ; and efforts, which we trust they will generous!: manifest in good works, and which we preiui. to r< pay in every effort to give the Sentinehilue and influence. We are prepared to print all kinds of blah j for county officer’s use, or furnish nnv ofe : books of record they may need.
